CRAFT SATURDAY ??

Hello Peeps,Well, I decided to have a crafty Saturday today instead of my original plan. I was going to get rid of some garden rubbish - I have 4 big piles of dead stuff and twigs - but I can't burn them at this time of year cuz it's against the law and they are too big to stuff into a sack, so I walked away in disgust and came down to my craft room :-D LoLI'm still feeling a bit 'bleh' about crafting at the moment. !! It's not that I don't have ideas.... I think it's that I have too many and things just aren't flowing from my brain down my arm and aren't coming out exactly like I pictured them - so it's all a bit frustrating. !! :-(Anyhoo - here's another ATC I mucked about with, as I often find they inspire me and give me the satisfaction of actually completing something :-)

The background for this was done by swiping assorted Spectrum Noir pens over some plain card.

Now - this baby is about 5" long and I wanted it for an ATC, which is 3.5 " x 2.5", so I stamped it in black ink first and then put it through the scanner so that I could re-size it in a graphics programme.

The Raven and Sentiment are from FUN STAMPERS JOURNEY and he is just the perfect size for an ATC but I did print and scan as before and then 'flipped' him because I wanted him to face the other way. I then cut him out and mounted him on foamies for a bit of lift.

Well - I keep looking at all my schtuff and I still don't know what to do, so I might go and do some sewing now !

Thanks for popping in and I hope you have a FAB crafting weekend or whatever else you are going to do :-D xxxxxxxx

What a fab ATC. LOVE that background stamp and how you used it with the bird. I am rubbish at perspective, but you nailed it.

Aha, have you got feelings of "overwhelm"? I am suffering from that a bit at the moment . . . so much to play with and can't get down to it for anything! Still, I have a personal challenge to meet, using some stamps that arrived yesterday, so will HAVE to get on with it!

Yay, Ike! Did you notice... you are the winner over at 613 Avenue Create! Congratulations, my friend! Somehow I missed your ATC the first time around, and it's gorgeous! Love the perspective and the beautiful sky! Enjoy your day!

Oh wau, love the combination of B&W images with that gorgeous striped background. Brilliantly completed, lol! Thank you for joining Lost Coast Portal to Creativity ATC challenge, hope to see you next month also.
